Whether you’re in the swingers lifestyle or not, you’ve likely heard about friends with benefits. You’re also certainly familiar with the term ‘fuck buddies’ as you probably have a few of those amid your swinging circles.

While they both involve sex, they differ in that swinger lifestyle friends with benefits involve partners involved in a mutual friendship. These are real friends who find each other attractive and take their relationship into the bedroom, but don’t go further than remaining ‘friends’ who have sex.

Fuck buddies are simply people you hook up with and have no other real outside connection beyond sex. To maintain a friendship and enjoy sexual perks, you’ll want to keep these rules in mind to succeed and avoid problems down the line.

Rule #1: Be Prepared for Emotional Complexities

Friends with benefits (FWBs) can become complex if you get too involved. Take advantage of the best part of a relationship—the sex—without dealing with all the hassles of everyday life like bills and such. If you can’t compartmentalize the difference between your friend and sometimes lover, you might not be cut out for these arrangements.

Rule #2: No Dating Allowed

Swingers often go out on dates with their playmates, but typically as a precursor to dessert—hooking up. However, this might not be true in a committed swinger lifestyle relationship. In a FWB arrangement, members of the couple don’t go out on dates alone with their FWB play partner, as those are associated primarily with singles seeking a deeper romantic relationship.

Rule #3. Avoid Starting Up a FWB Situation with Long Time Friends

You don’t want to risk sacrificing a long-term friendship by getting involved sexually. The best FWB situations stem from friends you’ve recently connected with that shares the feeling of mutual attraction with you. In this sense, you might want to avoid meeting this new person’s friends, who might not be down with their outside swinging fun sessions with you.

Rule #4. Don’t Fall in Love

There is a high chance that one or both of you will be tempted to catch feelings at times, and this is entirely normal. However, allowing these feelings to grow and blossom drastically changes the landscape of a friends with benefits situation. This can create drama and ruin the arrangement unless both of you are feeling the same way and opt to transition into a full fledged relationship.

Rule #5: Don’t Text—Sext!

Be straight and to the point with your FWB partner. Don’t get too mushy when sex is on the agenda, but be direct with a text with statements like, “Are you ready for me?” or “My place or yours?” to avoid confusion about your intentions.

Rule #6: Jealousy is Not Allowed

Whether it’s you, your FWB or perhaps even your main squeeze there’s no room for jealousy in these relationships. Your goal is simply to satisfy yours and their sexual cravings, but that doesn’t mean you can’t meet new people or have other FWB set ups with others.

Stick with these rules and you should be well prepared to embark on a FWB relationship without all the fuss that comes with full-time partnerships.

The post 6 Sexy Lifestyle Friends With Benefits (FWB) Rules appeared first on Swingers Blog By SwingLifeStyle.

Swingers lifestyle relationships have historically been considered taboo. However, there are quite a few couples who find that the swingers lifestyle has been more beneficial than harmful to their union.

Not everyone is cut out for monogamy, so when like minded couples hook up and decide to share their love with others they often discover greater heights of pleasure that allows them to remain together in a healthy partnership. Let’s explore more about healthy relationships in the world of swinging.

Swinging in a Jealousy Free Relationship

The most pertinent aspect of the swingers lifestyle is to eradicate jealousy in all forms. While it seems that fear of losing the one you love is normal, couples who don’t feel the need to keep partners all to themselves actually have a better chance of maintaining a solid connection with a primary mate. Couples who embrace monogamy seem to have a tendency to feel like their golden days are gone and they can feel ‘trapped’—which isn’t a bonus in any relationship.

Having a ‘live and let live’ mentality can actually be more grounding for those in swinging relationships. The down low according to an array of mental health professionals is that monogamous couples have a tendency to be more judgmental about sex while swinging couples are predominantly more committed and satisfied compared to their vanilla peers.

Healthy Relationships in Swinging Require Rules

Just because we love to share the one we love doesn’t mean that we don’t have a set of rules that must be followed. It takes a lot of trust to be successful in polyamorous or swinging heathly relationships, so any limitations must be defined in advance. This means that sneaking around for rendezvous, looking up potential playmates or apps, etc. is out of the question without permission from your main squeeze.

Stay Protected and Get Tested

Even if you and your swinging buddies do their best to stay free of sexually transmitted diseases, you can only be responsible for yourself. Sh*t happens, so getting routinely tested for STDs can ensure the safety that you want to honor your body with. Even when using protection, incidents can occur and sex toys might be contaminated in the heat of the moment. Stay clean and well with a combination of protection and wellness checkups that make all partners feel more at ease during engagements.

Excitement…What’s Healthier Than That?

Many monogamous couples don’t last for a lifetime simply due to boredom in the bedroom. Those who opt to participate in the swingers lifestyle tend to stay together longer and stronger than vanilla couples. Whether you delve into soft swaps, hard swaps, BDSM, hot wifing or just testing the waters out with sexy chats, it’s likely to spice up things in the bedroom and bring you closer together.

In closing, are swinging relationships healthy? It’s going to depend on how you approach it to determine that answer. Be responsible, kind, respectful and keep it clean to see where it goes!

The post Is The Swingers Lifestyle Healthy for Relationships? appeared first on Swingers Blog By SwingLifeStyle.

There are numerous reasons why a couple might find themselves caught up in a sexless marriage or a sexless relationship with a significant other. The diminishment of sexual engagement could be the result of boredom in the bedroom, sexual dysfunction, or due to a disconnect in the relationship itself.

However, more and more psychological experts and sex therapists are helping couples open up to considering an alternative lifestyle like swinging to help them transform their relationship—in and out of the bedroom.

Essentially, swinging is a form of consensual non-monogamy relationship that can bring couples closer together by fostering trust, inciting excitement and through seeing the other partner happy in cases of sexual dissatisfaction. Those who have found themselves stuck in tepid or sexless relationships should read on to discover how the lifestyle can help resurge those flaming passions.

Voyeurism Builds Excitement

Voyeurism is a mild way to participate in an alternative lifestyle that can help restore desire between partners without having to engage with others intimately. Voyeurism is the act of watching each other or others engage in sex or sexy actions.

These can include acts of self-pleasure, strip teases, watching sexy people on the beach, heading to a voyeur club or by viewing porn together. Watching others or each other without the pressure of having sex can actually be more exciting than sex itself—especially for those out of practice or who’ve lost interest.

The Exhilaration of Exhibitionism

Sexless relationships often just need a bit of newness tossed in. Couples doing something bold and daring that is far outside their norm—and maybe even their comfort zone—can be rather exhilarating, and flowing endorphins can lead to sexual arousal. Exhibitionism literally puts couples in sexless relationships or a sexless marriage into the spotlight for other voyeurs.

The aim of exhibitionism is to allow others to view your intimate moments, which may be sexual or not. This could be walking naked on the beach, taking the stage at a swingers club, or planning a trip to a nudist colony. Just the sheer exhilaration of being ‘seen’ can bring the vigor and arousal back to the bedroom once you get home. And don’t forget, you can be exhibitionists for each other in private, too!

Soft Swapping & Full Swaps to Turn on the Heat

Want to go all in for something a bit more intense than seeing others or being seen to heat things up in the sack? Those just entering the lifestyle to get their groove back tend to start with a soft swap where there is only petting, kissing and fondling but no sex. If there is one partner more reluctant to sex than the other than the obvious participant would likely start with the ‘ready to go’ partner with a soft swap.

Ready to go all the way or allow a partner that’s in need in sex to get that satisfaction? A full swap means penetrative sex with a consensual party outside the relationship. Sometimes just seeing a lover with another is enough to make a partner realize how good they have it. Sometimes they just get so turned on they can’t help but want to make love more often again.

Threesomes and polyamory are good options for couples seeking to bring on a part-time or full-time fill in for their sexless marriage, but all situations are different.

All of these are great things to try amid the lifestyle that don’t have to involve full-time swinging or sex at all, so you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by thinking outside the box!

Some adult profiles can seem inauthentic and determining which ones are real can prove a bit more challenging — particularly when it comes to adult personals in the swingers lifestyle.

However, with these easy tips, you can more easily spot if someone you’re considering for play is truly who they say they are with intentions that match up with your own.

Pay Attention to Swinger Profile Details

Take a close look at the sexual preferences, weight, height and other pertinent details in all the swingers personals you review. Those that are incomplete or seem too good to be true should fall under careful scrutiny.

Be leery of profiles that only talk about hooking up and sex—unless that’s what you’re into. High quality content in the profile such as hobbies, habits, family and doing ‘together’ activities is likely to lead to discovering more stable couples and individuals in the swingers community versus those looking to cheat or have a quick fling.

Swingers Profile Images: Evaluating and a Few Warning Signs

Pretty much every swingers website has a place for members to post public and private images that can be viewed by other members of the site. Pay attention to the images being shared in your public profile. Be sure to crop or blur out identifying features if privacy is a top concern.

When you view photos, see how well they match up with the swingers personals description provided. Most swingers website has image protection enabled so other members cannot be added to a lookie loo’s personal collection.

While it’s smart to be cautious doling out pics, couples should be cautious of others not willing to share any pics of their own or who insist on going off platform to an IM or email. If they refuse to talk or exchange emails and photos before meeting—just say “No, thanks!” and move onto to more realistic matches. Those who don’t show themselves might simply have something to hide.

Use Swingers Websites Certification As A Guide

Not all sites have a certification process that helps verify a couple or single as being a ‘real’ swinger. Certs aren’t just indicators of proven sexcapades, but they are a good way to let other members know you’re serious about the lifestyle.

It’s a definite bonus if people you’re considering hooking up with have a few well written letters from other swingers they’ve met or have connections with other lifestyle groups to add to their merit.

The most important thing in evaluating a swingers profile is to be sure they are a good match for you and your desires. Take time to make a connection through video chats, emails and phone calls before meeting up in person. Try not to share too much information about yourself or your family until you know your play partner(s) a little better.

Wife Sharing and Why Women Love It

Wife Sharing In the swing lifestyle there are many types of relationships that can be practiced. For instance, there is wife sharing where a woman can have sex with more than one man. This has its own benefits which has made many women like it, For instance, in case a woman has more sex drive … Continue reading Wife Sharing and Why Women Love It→

Swinger chatrooms are the best place to connect with other swingers and adventurous people of the lifestyle. There is no shortage of people out there looking for sexual adventures to add a little spice to their love life. Whether its casual sex or a friends with benefits type of situation, more and more people are turning online for sexual encounters.

However, sites like Grindr, Zoosk, Tinder and ihookup might not be the best places for swingers or people of the lifestyle. While chatting is possible on most of these sites, which follows a random hook up, for open minded people of varying interests, there are dedicated swinger chat rooms or lifestyle specific chatrooms available on SwingLifeStyle.

If you’re looking for couples, BDSM, or more than one person to play with, hitting up the swinger chat on SLS is sure to lead you to other like-minded individuals with similar interests. There are several benefits of chatting with other like minded people online, and we’ll cover some of those for you here along with some tips for success.

Chatty Flirting Builds Confidence

Swinger chat rooms expose you to tons of lifestyle individuals with a variety of interests. There are specialized rooms for kinky tastes, hotwifing, LGBTQ community members and some places are dedicated to heavy flirting. By finding your ‘place’ in a chatroom, you can get familiar with other swingers, flirt with new people and share things that you might not on a regular website. Whatever you are seeking, you’ll build up confidence through familiarity without even having to participate or head to a club.

Swinger Chatrooms are Economical

One major benefit to online swinger chat rooms is that they are much cheaper than those hefty club entry fees and cocktails. Of course, it’s a good idea to choose a site that has a membership fee, as it weeds out the trolls and those who aren’t serious. But that’s a small price to pay versus even one night out on the town hunting for other swingers to connect with.

Explore Fantasies More Freely

Those dark fetishes can come out and play in swingers chatrooms. Knowing that the other participants have a common goal — sex — gives you a bit more freedom in what you share. This is a great way to even explore fantasies with current partners in private, which can bring couples closer together overall. There’s really not too much considered taboo on swingers sites chat rooms, but there are community rules and guidelines to follow that you must adhere to or you will get booted.

Quick Tips for Using Swinger Chat Rooms & Sites

While there are not many hard and fast rules when using sexy chat rooms, these are some tips for making sure a good time is had by all.

Couples should consider using the chat together to explore new ideas and have some sexy time between the two of you.Avoid using your real name or handing out photos to just anyone. It’s better to try to connect with potential partners in a private room should it get that far.Don’t send unsolicited sexually explicit photos, and use tasteful profile pics that lean towards sexy but not over the top full on nudes. Remember, these photos can end up anywhere!Be respectful, don’t harass others or participate in body shaming, nor shame other member’s fantasies.

Most of all, remember that everyone is there to share and chat and have a good time, so be a considerate user and be aware of the community’s guidelines to avoid getting banned from swingers sites.

The concept of mastering orgasm control has mystified men for centuries, just as many women have chased the dream of having them upon command. However, how does one achieve this goal? Can it be done alone or only with a partner?

We’ll answer these burning questions and much while discussing the art of edging, which is the sexual practice of metaphorically taking yourself to the ‘edge’ of orgasms before allowing yourself to climax.

Why do this? Well, here are three reasons to give edging—aka peaking or surfing—a try.

1. Learn to Achieve Orgasms When You Most Desire

Women achieve orgasm when masturbating well over 90% of the time, and learning to hold back on allowing themselves to get to that magical point can actually give them greater control over the ability to have them whenever they desire.

One need not be swinging or even involved in the lifestyle—or even have a partner for that matter—to take advantage of this benefit of edging. Men, on the other hand, can use this technique to prolong orgasms. This is not only to provide greater pleasure to partners, but it will ultimately give him more intense feelings during each sexual practice.

2. Boost Body Confidence and Awareness for Greater Sexual Satisfaction

Sexual dysfunction is becoming more common in men and women of all ages for an array of reasons, and this isn’t limited to those in the swingers lifestyle. Many women and men feel extremely uncomfortable talking with partners or physicians about sexual issues, but through edging with partners or with yourself, you can become more confident in discussing sex.

Sound crazy? In a way, it is simply psychological, but edging can help you better understand yourself in ways that will ensure a healthier sex life filled with greater pleasure.

You need not be involved in the lifestyle or swinging at all to enjoy the perks of adopting this sexual practice into your solo, partner or group routines. Regardless of results, you’re sure to find the experience of delayed orgasm somewhat succulent.

While the swingers lifestyle in and of itself is an adventure, there often comes a time when mixing things up a bit can truly create opportunities for super sexy engagements.

Here are a few ideas for spicing it up at your next swinger couple gathering or party.

Who Holds the Key to Satisfaction?

While somewhat traditional historically, the art of the key party is often forgotten about as we get older. Bring the sexy back by letting fate decide everyone’s ‘date’ for the night.

The premise is simple: Keys are placed in a bowl, someone chooses a set, and the owner becomes their starting partner for playtime. Make sure everyone is attracted to each other, and keep male and female key sets separate unless bi-sexual action is on the menu.

Costumed Coitus Masquerade

Swinger couples hosting a party might consider having a version of an Eyes Wide Shut Party, replete with costumes and masquerade masks. Not only are costumes fun and open up the doors for role play and fantasy, but masks can create a sense of mystery and wonder.

Even if everyone knows each other, the perceived anonymity often lets guests explore more freely. Most supplies are easy to find at  party stores or online, and don’t forget extras for anyone who forgets their mask.

Do Play with Your Food

Mother always said “Don’t play with your food.” But we highly disagree with this, as food is fun and can be a great compliment to a sultry night of swinging action. Think beyond traditional toys and head to the kitchen to see what might be playtime ready.

Produce such as cucumbers, carrots, and zucchini are popular choices that satisfy. Toppings, sweet sauces and fruits are exceptional bed buddies, and even ice cubes can be a remarkable addition to sex play.

Get the Group Involved

While some couples and their friends swap partners one at a time, why not get the group going with a gang bang or timed switch-up to make a ‘game’ of it. There can be a dedicated room set aside where people can join if so inclined without feeling pressured into group sex scenarios. While everyone might not be into it, some people have their first group adventures within the comfort of like-minded friends in the comfort of a private home versus a sex club.

There are dozens of ways to embrace a greater sense of sensual adventure. It doesn’t need to be expensive or fancy to be a success, it just takes a bit of creativity and an open mind to boost excitement in your swingers community.

Swinging doesn’t have to be a full-time lifestyle. In fact, most swingers perfectly balance their sexual adventures alongside a more traditional and vanilla lifestyle. If you’re new to the community or just wondering how it’s done, this guide give you an inside look at how swingers manage to enjoy both sexual freedom and a vanilla lifestyle with ease!

Swingers Never Mention It

This may seem obvious, but many new swingers often worry about their friends or family knowing about their lifestyle. Yet if you think about it, has anyone ever asked you about swinging? It’s a very rare topic, and even if someone has suspicions that you swing, it’s unlikely that they would ask. There’s no tell-tale sign of a swinger, and the only way most people would know is if you tell them. So to keep your colleagues and family out of the picture, simply avoid mentioning swinging and they’ll likely never know about your secret lifestyle.

“Swinger Couples Go Dancing”

If you’re going every Friday to a swingers club with your partner and your colleagues or family members ask about your evening, simply state you’re heading for drinks or going dancing. If they persist about details, just say that you forgot what the clubs were called but you had a great time. 

Online Anonymity 

Many modern swingers find new partners and clubs online, but it’s important to remain as anonymous as possible when writing on forums or online chats. You never know who’s reading, and it’s very difficult to permanently delete something from the internet. To protect yourself from snooping bosses, relatives, and neighbors, use an online pseudonym that has no connection to your own name or interests when writing about swinging. 

Hire a Babysitter and Head to the Club

There are swingers in their early 20’s and swingers in their late 70’s. It’s a very welcoming community, and you’d often be surprised at the types of people you find at swinger clubs and events. Anyone from the local skater punk to the millionaire attorney could be into swinging, and they often fulfill their responsibilities just like anyone else. They go to work, they hire a babysitter for the evening, and then they enjoy a night on the town. 

It’s perfectly possible to lead a vanilla lifestyle while swinging, and these tips are all you need to get started. Remember to never share your real name online, and simply avoid mentioning swinging around your friends, family, and colleagues. If you do all of these things, you can be swinging in secrecy in no time!

The post How Swingers Balance The Lifestyle & Their Vanilla World appeared first on Swingers Blog By SwingLifeStyle.

Before entering into any relationship, it’s ideal for all parties getting involved to have a  better understanding of exactly what to expect from one another. While traditional relationships tend to come with an expectation of monogamy, there are some people who may be—or find themselves interested in—having an open relationship or exploring the polyamory lifestyle.

Here, we’ll discuss the difference between monogamy and an open relationship and the pros and cons of both lifestyle options.

What Are Monogamous Relationships and the Perks of Having One?

Relationships that are defined by expectations of monogamy, whether the partners are married or just dating, require a full commitment to one another that doesn’t include romantic or sexual connections outside of their own selves. Some couples prefer this form of vanilla lifestyle because it gives them comfort in knowing someone is fully devoted to them. This concept goes hand in hand with ideal family values that are predominant in most societies and cultures.

The Ideals and Pros of an Open Relationship

An open relationship is not as common as monogamous ones are in today’s world, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t just as fulfilling for couples, if not more so. An open relationship is one essential in which both parties are committed to each another, but they have made an agreement that sex and dating relationships outside of their own is acceptable.

This is what is also known as ethical non monogamy. The concept is that the couple retains their emotional connection while keeping a non-exclusive sex life. This can involve partner swapping or some form of polyamory, as these relationships will wholly be defined by the terms agreed upon by the couple. Many claim that some of the top benefits are greater sex-esteem and satisfaction as well as better sex within their base monogamous relationship.

Reasons to Rethink Monogamous Relationships

Because humans are designed to be curious and explorative creatures, many question how practical it may or may not be to expect complete dedication for a lifetime to another via a spiritual or official union such as marriage. When rough patches or dissatisfaction lead to temptation, the likelihood of infidelity rises.

However, with an agreement to engage in ethical non monogamy in place, a lot of issues in the future can be surpassed, and many couples actually have grown stronger in their level of satisfaction with their primary partner after an open relationship experience. Those who engage in partner swaps to fulfill temptations also report a greater sense of connection with their main squeeze.

Potential Cons of Open Relationships

Open relationships are not designed for everyone, and one of the biggest risks to participants in such arrangements is jealousy. Engaging with another person can require strict rules between base couples, and there’s always the chance that an outside fling can be viewed as a threat. These open relationships must remain ethical, open and require honesty and sensitivity by both partners.

What is the best choice for you? Monogamy or an open relationship? Only you can decide that, but going in with an open mind and open heart allows for the greatest potential for a rewarding outcome.

MONOGAMY IS DEAD: TIME TO SWING!

Research suggests monogamy is not worth it. Mate swapping or most commonly known as swinging, is engaging in sexual activities to other people outside of your relationship or marriage. It has been seen by people as strange or deviant but research proved that swingers actually live a healthier and better life than the ones that are in monogamous relationships.
